User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux i686; rv:17.0) Gecko/17.0 Firefox/17.0 Hello, Just got a pretty weird bug. As a workflow to test an other bug I tryed to install very last 12.3 iso (rc1 probably, build 024) I let the tick for "use same passwd for root" what I never do usually. I used "culte" for user, "culte123" as passwd (dummy, so I can share :-). I was asked "do you really want that" and said yes. When te (xfce, no boot manager) install was over I could boot (with other party grub legacy). The boot was incredibly long - but the computer is old. and on the xfce login, I couldn't log. No user. But I could perfectly log as root with culte123!!! and veryfy, nothing in /home. loging xfce as root I could add the culte user with yast and log normally jdd Reproducible: Didn't try Steps to Reproduce: very long to reproduce :-( Actual Results: I don't see hox this can happen. I was never asked for the root pass, of course
Please attach the y2logs as described on http://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bugreport_YaST#Attachments_-_y2logs.2C_hwinfo_etc.
Created attachment 526518 [details] yast logs I hope you will find info in this, I had a hard time installing and wouldn't like to do it again :-) thanks
Please attach full logs directory: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Bugreport_YaST#I_attached_.2Fvar.2Flog.2FYaST2.2Fy2log_to_a_YaST2_bug.2C_and_still_I_am_asked_to_attach_y2logs._Why.3F
Created attachment 527257 [details] tgz of/vat/log/Yast hello. I use xfce. the situation is even worst right now, I can't even log width gdm as user. I can log as root, log as tty I made zypper up right now (feb 27, five o'clock), seeing the problem, I tryed zypper dup, with no better result. I install kde to compare
may be it's not gdm, because I could log width gdm, but icewm, not xfce
yes, width kdm kde4 loads ok but xfce still not but I don't know if it's the same bug? may I open an other bug? thanks
(In reply to comment #6) > yes, width kdm kde4 loads ok but xfce still not Sounds like bug 789068 ...
So just to clarify: you actually can log as non-root user, but not into xfce. Login on text console or into other window manager is fine.
exactly I also can log as root in xfce, so it may by a permission problem but I don't know if it's related to the bug I first openned here.
So it does not look related to YaST at all. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 789068 ***
